InsTech - insurance & innovation with Matthew Grant & Robin Merttens

Sid Jha, Founder & CEO: Arbol: Managing climate risks - parametric and beyond (274)


Listen Later

Arbol, an MGA specializing in parametric insurance, has been rapidly growing and expanding since we last spoke a year ago. Arbol recently announced a partnership with reinsurer Beazley, enabling them to deploy capacity in the US for weather risks. Tune in to Henry Gale, Senior Research Analyst at InsTech as he speaks to Arbol’s CEO, Sid Jha, about Arbol’s plans to target unmet risks in the energy and agriculture sectors and its new products to help companies manage climate risks beyond insurance.

Key talking points include:

  • Insuring renewable energy and agribusinesses with parametric
  • Helping companies understand their exposure to climate risks
  • Measuring carbon offsets and the potential for carbon credit insurance
  • Building an ecosystem for climate risk management
  • Hybrid parametric insurance for difficult-to-insure risks
  • "Climate risk time bombs" in our financial system
